"Wow, I didn't think it was possible, but reading the "unauthorized guide" was even harder than reading the original book! It's understandable because of the dense information included in both books - we are talking about quantum mechanics here - but I thought the "guide" would have been written with a little more compassion for the layperson. Sadly, this is not the case and Alexandra Bruce actually makes it more difficult to understand the concepts presented in "What the Bleep do We Know!?"
Note - even though I read "What the Bleep" first, it appears that Bruce's "unauthorized guide" is actually based on the "What the Bleep" movie...the "What the Bleep" book was published AFTER Bruce's guide.
I feel like Bruce didn't accomplish her goal of explaining the main points made by various people interviewed in the movie/book. She spends the majority of the book rehashing content from the movie/book then providing her reasons why it's wrong. Oh and let's not forget her "physicist friend who wishes to remain anonymous" who only appears to make a snarky remark or two.
I really had to push myself to get through this book; I kept waiting for an epiphany where Bruce's commentary makes it all click for me (I admit I didn't understand a good chunk of "What the Bleep") and I was left wanting. I think I would have more luck in grasping the concepts if I re-read the original book or watched the movie. Reading Bruce's guide was not helpful at all."
"This book gives the reader insight into some of the authorities quoted in the movie What the Bleep Do We Know? It gives more in depth simple explanations for the theories in the the film. It was interesting to me because I so wanted to believe things are as simple as the movies leaves you feeling they are. Just believe in something strongly enough, visualize it, and then make it manifest. Its not magic, its science. The book helped bring me back to reality as if my daily life wasn't enough to do that already."
